Woman Pushed Off Highway, Stabbed to Death by Cabbie: Police

A 20-year-old woman was killed Wednesday morning when a cab driver allegedly rammed the car she was riding in off a Bronx highway and then repeatedly stabbed her in what is being investigated as domestic dispute, police said.

The incident occurred on the Pelham Parkway near the northbound entrance ramp to New England Thruway, police said. The name of the victim and the suspect were not released. An investigation into the incident is ongoing.

According to police, a 31-year-old man driving a Toyota Camry allegedly struck the sports utility vehicle that the woman was riding in, causing it to turn over onto its side.

The man then allegedly got out of the car, went to the passenger’s side of the SUV and then repeatedly stabbed the woman, striking her in the neck and torso, police said. Responding medics pronounced her dead at the scene.

The 31-year-old man was arrested at the scene. Charges are pending.

The driver of the SUV suffered minor injuries and refused medical attention.
